The Practical Pig

Red tie or blue? Corn Flakes or pancakes for breakfast? Do homework or save it until tomorrow? People make countless decisions throughout the day. These decisions are based on a combination of the practical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual qualities of each individual. However, the most important decisions that a person makes are driven by emotions such as fear, joy, jealousy, pride, and anger. These emotions play the biggest role in the critical decisions that define a person, and they

issues through the context of animals under inequitable leadership. Orwell places the pigs as representing the higher classes; and dogs that rule under the command of Napoleon (the ruthless dictator in Animal Farm) as the enforcers of their will. This

“butchers we may be assured will not be wanting, although I rather recommend buying the Children alive, and dressing them hot from the Knife, as we do roasting Pigs.” He is proposing that slaughter houses should be built and instead of the butchers slaughtering pigs and other animals, they would slaughter children and roast them like they would pigs. He knows this will affect the people because no one would want their own children to be killed and treated like if they were animals because they are not

the growth and development of muscle of pigs essentially requires dietary supply of proteins, or its small subunits, which are amino acids (AA). There are 20 AA that serve as building blocks for protein biosynthesis, but not all AA are essential amino acids (EAA) required from diets because pigs can de novo synthesize 10 of them. (Liao et al., 2015). In addition, the EAA are defined as those AA that require to be supplied in diets exogenously because pigs cannot synthesize them or cannot be synthesized

political scenario is one of the finest reads of 20th century that grips the readers from the very start and provides a terror inducing outlook to the world we live in. Written in a third person narrative, the book talks about a dystopian society where pigs become the ruler and create slavery like conditions for the other animals. One of the most enthralling elements of the novel is its timelessness and a universal appeal. In fact, it would not be wrong to say that the book is a touchstone to understand

he soon became extremely corrupt, selfish, and greedy, chasing Snowball away in order to declare himself the official leader of Animal Farm. He enacted changes to the central structure of the farm by replacing communal meetings with a committee of pigs who had the power to pass laws. As he grew more powerful, he began employing cruel methods to dispose of animals whom he deemed a threat and adopted tyrannical policies almost identical to those used by the humans, even making hypocritical changes

Genetic engineering is the scientific process of using biotechnology to fundamentally alter the genetic makeup of an organism. It is a fairly recent practice in the history of science, with the first successful genetically-engineered organism created by introducing foreign DNA in an early-stage embryo of a mouse in 1974. This particular case is an example of transgenic modification, which is the artificial introduction and assimilation of unrelated DNA to an organism (Action Bioscience, 2013). However

religious institutions and the Church was so great that it put up the anti-Religious campaign, a series of “harassing believers, propagated atheism” and creating the false impression that the Soviet gave religious freedom to its people. The same way the pigs insisted Moses was full of lies in the first few chapters. Neverless, followed by the unsuccessful policies and the miserable

Karl Marx, writer of Communist Manifesto, is represented as an old, wise pig in George Orwell’s Animal Farm. Because Orwell is a democratic socialist and does not accept the ideologies of Marxism, he reveals the reality of communism and reflects his opinions through sardonic situations that occur among animals. The state of communism that Marx and Friedrich Engels describe is where the state is abolished, people live in a society where members work together in agreement and no one is exploited, and
